Have you ever heard of prodigies. The following are just three of them whom the world has known so far.

SARAH CHANG is described by other musicians as “the most wonderful, perfect violinist (小提琴手)” they've ever heard. What makes this praise especially surprising is Sara's age: She's only a teenager, and people have been describing her this way for years. On Sarah's fourth birthday, her father gave her a violin. By age 5, she was accepted at the famous Juilliard School of Music, in New York City. By 8, she was performing as a violin soloist (独奏者) with major orchestras. Since then, Sarah has performed around the world. She has also recorded many albums.

Before MICHAEL KEARNEY was born, the doctors warned his parents that he might have learning difficulties. He's been proving them wrong ever since!

Studying at home with his parents, Michael completed four grade levels each year. At 5, he entered high school - and finished in one year. By 10, he graduated from college with honors. At 11, he went to graduate school.

When ALEXANDRA NECHITA was 2, her parents gave her some crayons (彩色铅笔) and coloring books. Alexandra was soon working in inks, watercolors, and by the time she was 7, oil paints. At 8, Alexandra had her first art exhibition. Her paintings are often compared to those of Picasso and other great artists. They have sold for as much as $80,000. She has been on TV, and a book of her paintings was published.

“Mom, are you ready?"

It required a lot of training to get prepared for the safari. Although the training was boring, I would 65______ anything to go on a safari.

I saw some lions trying to 58______ the afternoon sun while lying under the shade of a tree. I had read many books about wildlife. Aren't lions very fierce (凶猛的)? We stopped to take a few quick pictures of them. The lions didn't seem to mind. When I saw how 69______ they looked, I wondered if all the books I had read had been telling the truth.

Then, we saw a fox, a group of playful monkeys and a not-so-happy-looking wolf. The sunlight was so 70______ that I felt as if I had just taken a shower in sweat!

Have you ever come home from a holiday feeling more tired than you were before you left? Through travelling, most people expect a break from their stressful lives. However, as they rush from one place to a___71___, they aren't really able to take a good rest.

Now, imagine living for a week in a French house, buying fresh vegetables from the local market every morning, and taking day trips to n___72___ villages which are within ten- minute bike rides. Does this sound great to you? That's the magic of slow travel. This is no "four-cities-in-seven-days" tour of Europe. Instead, you will really slow down and experience new cultures.

It can also mean covering long distances by train instead of by air so that you can enjoy the beautiful v___73___ along the way. No matter how you do it, the key is to slow down. You are to make the most of each moment of your holiday.

Slow travel is environmentally-friendlier than other types of travel. Airplanes cause lots of p___76___. Trains, bikes and your own feet are better for the environment. Slow travel also saves you money. Staying in one place for a week will r___77___ your transportation costs. Besides, you may cook your own food instead of eating out for every meal.

The next time you are to go on a holiday, remember to try it the slow way.

D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) (12分)

It was April 1962. I was 12 years old and in the seventh grade at William Cleveland School, in Houston, Texas. My English teacher was Ms. Ada Pettis. It was Spelling Bee time in our city. Students were given small books of words to study in preparation for the classroom spelldowns (拼单词比赛). Spelling Bee was one of the most important activities of the year in our school. Everyone wanted to qualify (有资格) for the school spelldown. Winners would enter the citywide competition and try hard to become the top Spelling Bee of Houston.

The day before the classroom spelldown, my youngest brother was playing with matches and accidentally set a fire in our house. The next morning, my mother called the school and told Ms. Pettis about the accident.

When I arrived at school, Ms. Pettis pulled me aside. She asked if I wanted her to put off the classroom spelldown because I was in a bad mood. I told her no. That day, I won the spelldown.

The school spelldown was held the next week. I won again! The citywide spelling competition was one month away.

Over the weekend, Ms. Pettis picked me up. We went to her home, where she helped me practice the spelling of difficult words.

After a couple of hours, Ms. Pettis took me to an ice cream bar, where we enjoyed large ice creams! We practiced and had big ice creams every weekend until the citywide competition.

I did not win, but I still felt proud __________________. I also felt thankful that __________________.
